Good vibrations: Michigan School for the Deaf students hit the dance floor for prom in Fenton

FENTON, MI — Most of the students couldn’t hear a note, but chances are it was the loudest prom in Genesee County.

Kaitlin Wears is a junior at Michigan School for the Deaf and took charge of a lot of the planning for the school’s prom. As with any prom, there was a lot to decide — what to eat, where to have it, what theme to have. But there was one aspect that was non-negotiable: a wooden dance floor.
